I was thinking along these lines last night. If its sexist meanings one is worried about, we should focus on words which have “-man-” in them, like:
MANual
MANdate
huMAN
It is left as an exercise for the reader to come up with politically correct non-sexist alternatives, as well as to list other similarly insensitive words in need of modernization.
woMAN
Whoa, MAN. I didn’t want to go there.
If an asteroid were to flatten Berkeley would the country lose anything irreplaceable?
Never in the course of human history have so many bent over and grabbed the ankles for so few.
The Left is circling the toilet bowl, throwing both ends of the safety lines to the lip. Their entire agenda is based on lies, and they have nothing tangible to hold to.
It is like we are living “Atlas Shrugged”, today!
Refuse to comply with this Orwellian idiocy.
Native Americans are Indians (capitalization optional).
Gays are homosexuals (or a host of less flattering terms).
People of color are blacks or hispanics.
Asians are orientals.
Manholes, firemen, and policemen are ... well, what they are.
Hip, hip, hooray.
There is approximately 2300 words with either “men” or “man” in it. We need to petition Websters to get rid of those words.
That would be a fun activity for 2020.
Gay’s are fruit cakes
“The council also objects to the word “heir,” preferring the term “beneficiaries.” Apparently it’s because “heir” includes the letters “he”.
It’s not inclusion, of course. It’s a bizarre kids’ game of ‘you can’t say that.’
How many people in the country know that?
I didn't know that.
If no one knows that basket case meant a person with no limbs, probably not even most people without limbs, so why do we have to completely change our culture and our language to accommodate the grossly sensitive, minute minority.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
I disagree that they are circling the toilet bowl. I think it's just the opposite. They are on the cusp of their crowning achievement and that's the take over of the USA. We are not "crushing" them as so many think. In fact they are more powerful than ever. They have open communists in congress and open communists running for president. They also have the support of millions of useful idiots ready to turn over all control to them. They control nearly 100 percent of our government. They control the judiciary, the intelligence agencies, state and local governments. They also control the media and the schools. It's madness and we are in great danger. President Trump is going to be leading for a maximum of five years or so then the commie vermin who have not been drained from the swamp in any way will have the chance they have been waiting for.
The more radical feminazis use Womyn for singular and plural.
Whatever, the council member needs to turn in his Mancard.
I believe it, but am curious: how did you get that number?
I thought a basket case was a motorcycle someone took apart and couldn’t get back together.
How can they create an inclusive atmosphere by excluding all these words?
Language diversity is our strength!
